Marine Survey for Insurance in Enniskillen Ireland
I had the day on the River Shannon, Ireland yesterday carrying out an Insurance Survey on this Linssen Motor Yacht.
Ultrasound Surveys are carried out to measure the hull plating thickness on vessels. Dozens of readings are taken around the vessels hull to look for areas where the hull plating may be thinning.
The Ultrasound Survey is not confined to hulls of vessels, bulkheads, decks and structures can also be measured as well as Aluminium and GRP hulls and other structures, contact us for your specific requirements.
Insight Marine Surveys also carry out Ultrasound Surveys on vessels as part of a Full Condition Survey. We have the latest ultrasonic thickness gauge instruments, they are non destructive and accurate readings are made without removing any of the paint or filler system. Our primary instrument is the Cygnus 4 multiple echo ultrasonic thickness gauge.
Insight Marine Surveys carries out Ultrasound Surveys on all types of vessels throughout the UK and Europe. We are experienced, hold qualifications in marine surveying and are members of surveying organisations including; International Institute of Marine Surveying (IIMS) or The Yacht Designers and Surveyors Association (YDSA). Our rates are competitive.
Cygnus 2 - Equipment. A report is provided explaining the findings of the Ultrasound Survey. Within the report, problems found during the survey are listed and information is given on their importance and recommendations for repair. All the thickness measurements made during the survey including their position will be recorded within the report.
Once the survey has been completed we guarantee to provide the report within 24Hrs. We will spend the time to answer any questions about the survey and are happy to give any yachting advice.

Remarks
Considered to be one of Ernest Woods' finest half deckers,
and probably one of the largest on the Broads, "Black Bess" was
privately commissioned as a 'one off'. She has the lines of a stretched White
Boat, and her three hull drawings and a sail plan are currently housed in the
archives at the Museum of the Broads in Stalham (available for viewing on
request). She was this year's winner at the Hickling Regatta (2015). She is a very quick boat and perfectly balanced for both
racing and pleasure cruising. In excellent and very original
condition for her age, she is a real survivor, with great charm and character.
Half share: £4500.
